Rawa Pongal

#Rawapongal - #Sooji #Pongal : Basically pongal is done with rice and green gram dhal. This rawa pongal is just a variation of it.
Here rawa ( sooji ) is used instead of rice. I haven't done this in recent times. I completely forgot this recipe. But when I went to my daughters' place she made this tiffin for breakfast. It was so tasty and very easy to make. I also made two days back and here it is.

Method :
Pressure cook dhal with 1/2 cup of water and a pinch of turmeric powder for 3 whistle.

In another burner boil 2 cups of water.
Keep a kadai on third burner with a tsp of ghee.
Roast rawa till you get a nice aroma.
Transfer onto a plate and keep aside.
Add a tsp of ghee again into the kadai.
When the ghee becomes hot splutter cumin seeds.
Then add pepper, nicely chopped green chilly and curry leaves and fry for some time..
Transfer onto a plate.

Open the cooker and add boiled water.
Switch on the stove and keep the burner knob at SIM position.
Add slowly roasted rawa and stirring with ladle.
Rawa gets cooked immediately.
Add the tempered ingredients and mix well.
